Re: Simple Raw Thread for 3.5 #28
The term "pinpoint" is probably the wrong word for them to use here.
Pinpoint isn't a 125 cubic foot space (5x5x5 space) its literally the point of a pin. To me that would mean the 50% miss chance isn't applicable anymore since its location is discerned to within the point of a pin (like 1mm or less)

No. Nauseated restricts you to a single move action per turn. Similarly,Check the Contention below. You can't use swift/immediate actions when StaggeredLast edited by heavyfuel; 2014-09-03 at 06:57 PM.

A135 contention
Swift/Immediate actions can be used any time a free action could be used (or even not on your turn for immediate actions) except limited to once per round, and nauseated creatures (and staggered creatures) can still take free actions (except for casting quickened spells in the case of nauseated), so a wizard can still abrupt jaunt while nauseatedWorld of Madius wiki - My personal campaign setting, including my homebrew Optional Gestalt/LA rules.

Re: Simple Raw Thread for 3.5 #28
Re: A135 contention
Indeed you are right. Just checked the Glossary and it says you can make free actions when nauseated (you still can't make them while staggered though). Weirdly, the SRD makes no such mention of free actions
which leads me to:
Q 137
If the SRD has a different definition than the WotC's Glossary, which takes precedence?Last edited by heavyfuel; 2014-09-03 at 07:10 PM.

Re: Simple Raw Thread for 3.5 #28
A 137 You have to track down the book sources.
The System Reference Document (SRD) is assembled from multiple book sources. The rule which adjudicates disagreements between rules sources is dependent on which book a particular rule comes from.
To find out where the different definitions of nauseated come from, we can consult WotC's online glossary:Spoiler: Primary Sources Errata RuleErrata Rule: Primary Sources
When you find a disagreement between two D&D® rules sources, unless an official errata file says otherwise, the primary source is correct. One example of a primary/secondary source is text taking precedence over a table entry. An individual spell description takes precedence when the short description in the beginning of the spells chapter disagrees.
Another example of primary vs. secondary sources involves book and topic precedence. The Player's Handbook, for example, gives all the rules for playing the game, for playing PC races, and for using base class descriptions. If you find something on one of those topics from the Dungeon Master's Guide or the Monster Manual that disagrees with the Player's Handbook, you should assume the Player's Handbook is the primary source. The Dungeon Master's Guide is the primary source for topics such as magic item descriptions, special material construction rules, and so on. The Monster Manual is the primary source for monster descriptions, templates, and supernatural, extraordinary, and spell-like abilities.nauseated
Experiencing stomach distress. Nauseated creatures cannot attack, cast spells, concentrate on spells, or do anything else requiring attention. The only action such a character can take is a single move action per turn, plus free actions (except for casting quickened spells).

Nauseated creatures are unable to attack, cast spells, concentrate on spells, or do anything else requiring attention. The only action such a character can take is a single move action per turn.
So the SRD can be right or wrong; you won't know until you track down the book sources from which the SRD content was derived in order to apply the rule which resolves such disagreements.Last edited by Curmudgeon; 2014-09-03 at 07:48 PM.

Q138
Can A lich heal itself with its own touch attack, since it uses negative energy to deal damage? In a similar manner to a dread necromancer with the tomb-tainted soul feat healing itself with its touch attack.Last edited by Yogibear41; 2014-09-03 at 08:43 PM.

Q139It takes 24 hrs to copy a spell into your spellbook regardless of the lvl of the spell. Is that 24 hrs straight, or can it be broken up, into say 8 hr increments?

There is no requirement for continuous writing, just that the whole process takes a total of 24 hours.

Re: Simple Raw Thread for 3.5 #28
A 138 [correction] No.
Damage: A lich without natural weapons has a touch attack that uses negative energy to deal 1d8+5 points of damage to living creatures; a Will save (DC 10 + 1/2 lich’s HD + lich’s Cha modifier) halves the damage.

Re: Simple Raw Thread for 3.5 #28
Q140 Clerics in Eberron don't need to be in one step of their deity. How does this work with Detect Evil/Law/Chaos/Good? Does an evil Cleric of a good deity have BOTH an evil aura from HD and good aura from the class levels, an aura of good (despite being evil) or what?

Yes. There is no rule saying that a creature can have only one aura. In fact all demons and devils and other creatures with two alignment subtypes have two. Eludecia has all four.

It doesn't. Spell Immunity gives you unbeatable spell resistance. Dispel Magic isn't subjected to SR.

You make all pertinent decisions about a spell (range, target, area, effect, version, and so forth) when the spell comes into effect.

Re: Simple Raw Thread for 3.5 #28
A 143 It depends.
"The spellcaster" isn't a single answer for magic items. The item creator supplies the necessary components (including XP), and determines the caster level; they're the spellcaster for those aspects. The item user determines the target for scrolls and wands; they're the spellcaster for that aspect. A potion imbiber is not a caster of a spell, but only a caster of the spell's effect.Potions are like spells cast upon the imbiber. The character taking the potion doesn’t get to make any decisions about the effect —the caster who brewed the potion has already done so. The drinker of a potion is both the effective target and the caster of the effect (though the potion indicates the caster level, the drinker still controls the effect).

Q 143 Follow-Up
Can the user of a scroll/wand make the effect choices (such as which ability score to heal with lesser restoration)? A potion must have that decided by the brewer, right?

Re: Simple Raw Thread for 3.5 #28
Q144: Can the voidmind's Sentient Tentacle wield a weapon (Or at least hold it?)?
Q145: Can the Morphic Weapon from Warshaper change a tentacle into a hand or at least something that can hold a weapon?
Spoiler: Sentient TentacleSentient Tentacle (Ex): A voidmind creature's tentacle attacks of irs own accord. The creature can direct it to attack certain targets, but the psionic nature of the tentacle enables it to flex and move in combat without hindering the creature's other combat abilities. A voidmind grimlock that has successfully grappled a creature with its tentacle can attack another creature at no penalty, as long as that creature is within a distance equal to the tentacle's reach.
Spoiler: Morphic WeaponsMorphic Weapons (Su): As a move action, a warshaper can grow natural weapons such as claws or fangs, allowing a natural attack that deals the appropriate amount of damage according to the size of the new form (see Table 5—1 on page 296 of the Monster Manual). These morphic weapons need not be natural weapons that the creature already possesses. For example, a warshaper polymorphed into an ettin (Large giant) could grow a claw that deals 1d6 points of damage, or horns for a gore attack that deals 1d8 points of damage.
EDIT: Some reference about the template and class:
Voidmind:
This is a creature template from Forgotten Realms
http://www.realmshelps.net/monsters/...voidmind.shtml
Warshaper:
This is a 3.5 class with plenty of prereqs, but the monster would quialify into them
